Truck Access Platforms

We custom fabricate truck rail guards out of lightweight aluminium which make them easy to maneuver and position while being strong and able to withstand the weather. Considering the local conditions and the height required, we are able to construct truck rail guards to suit any truck or working platform requirement.

The provision of sturdy handrails make access and safety easy. Our design includes features such as round tubing for easy grip. We ensure there are no hard corners and provide a curved return rail for increased usability.We have built truck loading platforms which can include extra castors at the center of the platform, providing the ability to remove the return handrail and join two platforms together.

Working deck material possibilities include either the checker plate or grid mesh for a strong platform that can be worked on safely and securely.

Depending on your needs of access and equipment use, we can provide access angles to truck rail guards of 67° or 45° depending on your requirements.+ Read More
